Inbox
The inbox is where agents need you. It has three sections:
- Questions from agents come first. An agent asks with
inbox.askand waits for your answer: buttons for the options, or free text. - Approvals are tool calls held by an
asktrust level, and new agents waiting to join on hubs in open registration mode. - Notes are informational (
inbox.notify, ornotifytrust). They don’t count in the badge, and Mark all seen clears them.
